Consider the reaction: SO2(g) +1/2 O2(g) → SO3(g). If the initial pressures of both SO2 and O2 are 1.00 bar and that of SO3 0.00 bar at T = 573.15 K, determine the equilibrium pressures of all three gases at this temperature. You are provided with only the following data (i.e., use only this data provided to solve the problem. Do not look up any additional data in the textbook): for SO2, A¡G°= -300.19 kJ mol-l and AfH® = -296.83 kJ mol-1, for 02, AƒG° = 0 kJ mol-1 and A¡H® = 0 kJ mol-1, and for SO3, A;G°= -371.06 kJ mol-1 and A;H° = -395.72 kJ mol-1. Clearly state any assumptions.

Question
1. Consider the reaction: SO2 (g) +1/2 02(g) → S03(g). If the initial pressures of both SO2 and O2 are
1.00 bar and that of SO3 0.00 bar at T = 573.15 K, determine the equilibrium pressures of all three gases
at this temperature. You are provided with only the following data (i.e., use only this data provided to
solve the problem. Do not look up any additional data in the textbook): for SO2, AfG° = -300.19 kJ
mol-1 and AfH° = -296.83 kJ mol-1, for O2, AfG°= 0 kJ mol-1 and AfH° = 0 kJ mol-1, and for
SO3, A;G°= -371.06 kJ mol-1 and A,H° = -395.72 kJ mol-1. Clearly state any assumptions.
